Yes, but it's best to do it only when there are other horses in other box stalls beside him, or if there's a special reason why he should be in a box stall, like if he is sick with a disease that is very contagious other horses (like Strangles) or injured or weak where he shouldn't be out on pasture exerting himself too much causing more injury (although a very small paddock or round pen would be better, with more fresh air) and if other horses may pick on him, or if there are serious predators around that may threaten his life. Make sure the stall is cleaned out every day after he's been in there, and fresh straw or sawdust is put down in a thick layer. If he's in there all the time, make sure it's cleaned out AT LEAST 3 times a day. Make sure the stall has as much ventilation as possible if he absolutley must be in there.
In most cases it is not necessary for a horse to be in a box stall especially if their healthy and sound, since if they have access to a barn or shed all the time with clean straw, that's all they really need to take shelter from the elements when they are otherwise out on pasture all the time.
Previous Answer:You can, but it is the worst thing you could do for a horse, aside from putting shoes on it. Horses were meant to be running around with other horses, not standing in their own waste, ruining their hooves, and breathing in unhealthy amounts of carbon dioxide and ammonia from their waste. Not being near horses can cause a horse to be stressed, which could threaten your horses life because ulcers develop when a horse is stressed.
